3.4) Engine temperature sensing
The emission tester needs to measure the engine temperature, to ensure consistent emission value results.
To be able to measure the engine temperature there are a few options.
The oil temperature sensor
An oil temperature sensor can be connected to the emission tester to let it measure the engine temperature.
Dilink 480 with the oil temp sensor connected
The oil temperature sensor needs to be inserted in to the dipstick tube so that the tip of the sensor cable that contains a thermo couple touches the engine oil.
For this the sensor’s length needs to be adjusted.
Insert probe into the dipstick tube
Select the type of temperature sensor if it differs from the last time when the
emission tester was used.
Temperature sensor selection screen
In the screen the actual value can be seen, so you know the sensor is operational.
